Official title
An Integrated Substance Use, Violence, and HIV/AIDS Syndemic Risk-reduction Intervention for African American Couples
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Synergistic interactions among substance abuse, violence, and HIV/AIDS, dubbed the SAVA syndemic, are highly linked to HIV acquisition among African Americans. Given limited literature and development of interventions for HIV-negative but high-risk heterosexual AA couples, there is a need for SAVA risk-reduction development tailored to this population. Phase 1 consisted of qualitative interviews with 16 couples who met study criteria to gather input and information to adapt an 8-session couple-based SAVA syndemic informed risk reduction intervention for HIV-negative, AA heterosexual couples who reported intimate partner violence (IPV) and substance abuse. Phase 2 is the focus of this trial and will consist of delivery of the intervention to 20 couples who meet study inclusion criteria to test the adapted intervention. Given the disproportionate impact of HIV on AAs, this study addresses a key gap in literature by testing the first SAVA informed risk-reduction intervention for high-risk, HIV-negative, heterosexual AA couples.
